File name on CD shown as UPPERCASE;1 on CD

Hi,

One thing puzzles me now.

I burned a CD which has file names as lower case. Those files showed lower case file names on other platforms (SUNS, SGI, Linux). But when I tried on our HP machine (HP 9000 C360 running 10.20), they are like UPPERCASE_FILENAME;1. (The CD was burned by a NT machine.)

Is this a problem from device (internal CDROM drive), or there is a trick to use the mount command?

All kinds of information/suggestion are welcome.

Best regards,

Reggie

Easy. Use the -o cdcase option when you mount the CD. Man mount_cdfs for details.

mount -F cdfs -o cdcase /dev/dsk/cXtYdZ /cdrom
If it ain't broke, I can fix that.

What command did you use when you mounted the CD?

Try this one and see what happens:

# mount -r -o cdcase /dev/dsk/c?t?d0 /cdrom

Hi Reggie,

Try,

mount -r -o cdcase /dev/dsk/cxtydz /cdrom

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Mount the CD with '-o cdcase' option.

# mount -F cdfs -o cdcase /dev/dsk/cxtxdx /cdrom.


If you want to make this permanent, then edit /etc/fstab and add this entry:

/dev/dsk/cxtxdx /cdrom cdfs ro,cdcase 0 0

Reggie,
If this is an oracle cd you will probably have to use pfs_mount, otherwise the aforementioned cdfs will probably work.

vi /etc/pfs_fstab and verify: /dev/dsk/cntndn /cdrom pfs-rrip xlat=unix 0 0
(or put these options on command line)
/usr/sbin/pfs_mountd &
/usr/sbin/pfsd &
/usr/sbin/pfs_mount /cdrom
/usr/sbin/pfs_umount /cdrom
ps ???ef|grep pfs
kill ???9 (pfsd)
kill ???9 (pfs_mountd)

pfs_umount ???c (cleanup files if have trouble pfs mounting)

The reason behind this is that the CD has been cut as a joliet CD not ISO 9660.
